Answer:
69.3 meters squared
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Think of the shape as being divided into two sections (a rectangle and a triangle)
2) multiply 5.2 times 7 to find the area of the rectangle (36.4)
3) subtract 5.2 from 14.6 to find the base of the triangle (9.4)
4) multiply 9.4 by the height of the triangle 7 (65.8)
5) divide 65.8 by two because a triangle is half of the needed rectangle
6) this leaves 32.9
7) add 32.9 and 36.4 to get your final answer of 69.3 meters squared
hope this helps :)
